Chapter 1706: Moved
Those piles and piles of chilling white bones.
And the eerie darkness all around.
Made this place look just like Hell on Earth.
Lin Mengyao was just an ordinary high school girl, she’d never seen anything like this before.
So she was so scared that her little face instantly went deathly pale, and she screamed on the spot, "Ah!!!"
Seeing this, Chen Feng hurried forward, pulled Lin Mengyao into his arms, gently patted her back, and soothed her, "Don’t be scared, Yaoyao, I’m still here. Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you!"
"Chen Feng, where is this place? It’s too scary. Could it be that we’re dead? Is this Hell?"
Lin Mengyao shrank in Chen Feng’s arms like a frightened little rabbit, her small face ghostly pale as she spoke.
"Relax, we’re not dead, and this isn’t Hell. We’re both perfectly fine right now!"
Chen Feng smiled slightly and comforted her.
"We’re fine? Then where is this?"
Lin Mengyao was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.
"This is the bottom of the cliff. We both fell down."
Chen Feng explained with a smile.
"What? The bottom of the cliff? From such a high cliff, we fell and didn’t die?"
Lin Mengyao was shocked on the spot and quickly checked her own body; she really wasn’t hurt at all.
This made Lin Mengyao extremely surprised; she could hardly believe any of this was real.
"Silly girl, if we were dead, how could we still be talking here? Don’t worry, the two of us are fine, alive and well!"
Chen Feng rubbed Lin Mengyao’s silky hair and said with a smile.
"Then... was it you who saved me?"
Lin Mengyao looked at Chen Feng and asked tentatively.
"You could say that."
Chen Feng smiled and nodded.
"How did you save me?"
Lin Mengyao asked with a face full of curiosity.
"I..."
Chen Feng hesitated for a moment, then roughly told Lin Mengyao what had happened.
After listening, Lin Mengyao’s beautiful eyes widened round in an instant. "You jumped down with me to save me?"
"Yeah."
Chen Feng nodded with a smile.
"You’re so stupid, Chen Feng, you’re such an idiot. Don’t you know this is a sheer cliff that drops for thousands of meters? If you jumped down, you could’ve died too, do you know that?"
Lin Mengyao glared at Chen Feng, her eyes red as she spoke.
"But if I didn’t save you, you would’ve died. I said I would protect you properly until I sent you back to Coastal, so I absolutely won’t allow you to die, and I definitely won’t just stand by and watch you die in front of me!"
Chen Feng said seriously, his face solemn.
"You... you’re really stupid!"
Lin Mengyao threw herself into Chen Feng’s arms and, moved to the core, began to sob loudly.
Maybe nothing is more moving than someone risking their life to save yours.
Chen Feng shook his head with a light smile, reached out and rubbed Lin Mengyao’s little head, and comforted her, "Alright, Yaoyao, don’t cry. Look, I’m fine, aren’t I? The two of us are both alive and well right now!"
"You’re not allowed to do something this stupid for me ever again. No matter when or where, your own life is the most important, got it?"
Lin Mengyao lifted her head to look at Chen Feng and choked out.
"Okay, I got it."
Chen Feng nodded with a smile.
However, even though he said that.
No matter what happened, as long as Lin Mengyao was in danger—
He would still put his life on the line to save her.
On this point, whether in reality or in a dream, nothing would change.
After Lin Mengyao’s emotions had calmed down.
Chen Feng took out the photo he had found earlier in the pile of bones, handed it to Lin Mengyao, and said with a smile, "Here, your photo. I didn’t manage to grab the frame, it shattered into pieces. Sorry about that!"
"It’s okay, it’s okay!"
Lin Mengyao hurriedly shook her head, then took the photo from Chen Feng’s hand and tucked it into her chest like a precious treasure.
Seeing this.
Chen Feng also smiled faintly.
It seemed this photo really was very important to Lin Mengyao.
"Chen Feng, thank you, thank you for helping me get my photo back. I... I really don’t even know what to say to thank you!"
Lin Mengyao looked at Chen Feng, her face full of excitement, stumbling over her words.
"No need to say so many polite things. But you must be more careful from now on. Don’t risk your life for it again. I know this photo means a lot to you, but no matter what, you’ve got to put your own safety first, understand?"
Chen Feng waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Mm, I know."
Lin Mengyao nodded very obediently.
Seeing this.
Chen Feng smiled slightly, then lifted his head to look at the sheer cliff that seemed to stretch endlessly upward, his brows furrowing.
Right now.
He had saved Lin Mengyao, and the photo had been found.
But how were they supposed to get back up?
This cliff was at least several thousand meters deep.
Climbing back up would be harder than ascending to the heavens.
Let alone taking Lin Mengyao with him.
That undoubtedly made it much more difficult.
"Chen Feng, what are you looking at?"
Seeing Chen Feng tilt his head back to stare upward, Lin Mengyao asked in confusion.
"I’m thinking about how we’re going to get up there."
Chen Feng lowered his head and explained with a smile.
"Get up there?"
Lin Mengyao looked up, and her small face turned pale again. She asked worriedly, "It’s so high. Chen Feng, what are we going to do?"
"It’s fine, leave it to me. If we could get down, we can get back up."
Chen Feng grinned as he spoke.
"You’ve thought of a way?"
Lin Mengyao asked doubtfully.
"I’m thinking."
Chen Feng smiled slightly, then stood up and walked to the cliff wall.
Lin Mengyao hurriedly followed and clung tightly to Chen Feng’s arm.
Seeing this.
Chen Feng froze for a moment and asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"
"I... I’m scared!"
Lin Mengyao looked around, her face full of terror.
"Don’t be scared, I’m here."
Chen Feng rubbed Lin Mengyao’s little head, then looked at her and said, "Yaoyao, back up a few steps first. I’m going to test how hard this cliff wall is."
"Okay!"
Lin Mengyao nodded and quickly backed up several steps.
Seeing this.
Chen Feng focused his mind, circulated his True Qi, and thrust his right palm straight at the cliff wall.
"Bang!"
With a loud boom.
The cliff wall was smashed by Chen Feng’s palm into a deep pit shaped like a handprint.
Seeing this.
Chen Feng’s eyes lit up.
This was his plan.
He was going to use his palms to strike from the bottom up, smashing out one pit after another in the cliff wall.
Then use those pits as footholds and leverage points to climb up along them.
Of course, the premise was that the cliff wall could withstand his Palm Force.
Otherwise, if he slapped it and a big chunk of the cliff collapsed, then this plan naturally wouldn’t work.
But judging from now—
The cliff wall was quite solid and could withstand Chen Feng’s Palm Force.
That was excellent!
